This is the finished design based on the finalized color storyboards. Timing, and effects were done in Adobe After Effects, and Adobe Premiere Pro. The cooking & dining audio was edited in Adobe Audition.
The first iteration of this project was a storyboard. In order to focus more on the Kyoto logo the festival goer was removed, and a backdrop of the Gion festival was used to replace the crowd, and lantern elements.
This is the hand drawn storyboard for a 5 second animatic promoting Kyoto as a festival travel destination.
The Gion festival tilt shift environment.
Close up to a street stall food skewer with the kanji for Kyoto written on it.
Zoom out.
A takoyaki ball comes into camera.
Then slides down the skewer.
More takoyaki follow suit until they spell out Kyoto.
